Wego's guide, last updated 28 May 2026, is written for exactly this record. Search and book as usual, directly on Wego; on the payment screen choose "Crypto" alongside cards and wallets; Wego redirects to the Triple-A gateway, where you "choose your coin or wallet, then either scan the QR code with your wallet app or copy the wallet address and exact amount"; confirm in your wallet; "you have around ~15 minutes before the rate-locked session expires"; once the chain confirms, the booking is finalised and a reference is emailed. "Stablecoin payments usually confirm in under a minute." Rules: "No transaction fee on crypto payments" from Wego; network fees are yours; the rate locks when you initiate payment; approved refunds come back "in crypto to a wallet address you nominate via a secure email link, confirmed with an OTP"; "crypto transactions are irreversible once confirmed on-chain". Triple-A handles conversion, custody and AML/KYC compliance, and Wego "continues to receive settlement in traditional local currencies". The seven options include Binance Pay as a wallet route; the four stablecoins are named outright. No network is published, as at every Triple-A merchant here — read it off the gateway page, and for a flight priced in the hundreds choose the cheapest one offered.
Documented. "Approved refunds are returned in crypto to a wallet address you nominate via a secure email link, confirmed with an OTP. The refunded fiat-equivalent may not match what you originally paid because of price fluctuation." Whether a fare or rate is refundable at all is the airline's or hotel's rule, as usual.
Stablecoin refunds are outbound payments a merchant chooses to send, not automatic reversals. There is no chargeback.
Wego is the first travel marketplace in this directory whose own guide answers every question we ask, including the one most merchants dodge: what happens to a refund.
Seven ways to pay through Triple-A: Bitcoin, Ether, USDC, USDT, PYUSD, EURC, or a Binance Pay wallet. No fee from Wego. A rate lock of about fifteen minutes from the moment you start. A booking finalised when the chain confirms, “usually under a minute” for a stablecoin. And refunds, where the fare allows one, “returned in crypto to a wallet address you nominate”, with the plain warning that the fiat value may differ from what you paid. For a stablecoin holder that last line is the argument for using one.
Whether the “Crypto” option appears for you — Wego says availability “may vary depending on local laws and regulations”, and the option only shows when you book directly on Wego rather than on a partner site it hands you to. And the network, which neither Wego nor Triple-A publishes; the gateway page shows it, and with four stablecoins on the menu the choice of coin and chain is yours to make cheaply.
Wego sells to travellers in markets where an international card is declined more often than it is accepted, and its own executives say so. A stablecoin checkout that confirms in a minute and refunds to a wallet is, for that traveller, a better product than the card — which is the directory’s thesis in a single merchant.
Alternative Airlines and Travala are the other flight bookers naming stablecoins; Trip.com is reported to run the same gateway without saying so; Emirates and airBaltic are the airlines. See the flights category.
An editor confirmed these payment options against the sources listed below.
Two documents on Wego's own domains. The company newsroom carries the 19 May 2026 announcement of the Triple-A partnership, quoting Wego's chief business officer and its director of payments. The Wego travel blog carries a step-by-step guide, updated 28 May 2026, that names USDC, USDT, PYUSD and EURC, describes the checkout, the rate lock, the fee rule and the crypto refund process. That is merchant documentation naming the coins, sufficient for a verified status without a live booking, which we did not make. No network is named, so the field is empty; Triple-A does not publish one either. Regional availability is recorded as a restriction in the merchant's own words. Wego's headquarters are given as Dubai and Singapore in the announcement dateline and company pages. "Sometimes" for identity reflects Triple-A's KYC obligations, which the announcement mentions without a threshold.
Payment availability can change without notice. Always confirm at Wego’s own checkout before paying. Spotted something wrong?
